This will be useful, cheers.

This is probably the first thing which really could be in a Linux
directory. It's probably best to move it later once we have others
though.

oops: you don't want to redirect in the /sbin/lsmod binary you want to
run it. I made a very similar mistake once when I tried to run a shell
script to fill out parameters to rm -rf - the result was not good.

I also changed this to use _wanted so we get a description. I removed
the return statement because it should return 1 if the loaded array is
created but empty.

Hmm, this is fine but I'd have used a state or cached the loaded array
and passed it to _arguments. Which is more efficient - functions
declared in the autoloaded functions or states?
